A coin is needed for this project? It doesn't make any sense -epecially if they are "That Good"...

The token is used to pay hosts. But you can pay in other main cryptos and also fiat, the service then buys INXT at market to pay the hosts.

The inclusion of fiat allows for a mass market adoption outside of crypto. Meaning the average Dropbox user can pay for the secure service without having to understand crypto wallets, open exchange accounts ETC etc

Internxt
As some of you might know, Internxt focuses on providing a range of superior, distributed internet services which are aimed to be incredibly powerful and intuitive. We're making these services incredibly attractive so that you can fall in love with them.

X Cloud
Our first service, X Cloud, gives you the security, privacy and reliability you'd expect from a cloud storage platform, thanks to distributed technology. X Cloud, will let you store your files on a cloud that's truly secure, private and reliable (unlike what services such as Google Drive or Dropbox have to offer, and similar to what providers such as Storj are doing). A distributed cloud with the world's most advanced encryption technologies, that's unbelievably beautiful. By using X Cloud, we encrypt your files with the world's most advanced encryption systems, split them, distribute and replicate them amongst different machines in our P2P network. We replicate copies of the files in different locations with which we can also provide an unseen 100% uptime, loading speed, and make these reachable only to you, wherever you are. With your current cloud file storage platform, your files are centralized and owned by an entity, who can normally have access to these files. With X Cloud, we don't have access to your files, nor does our P2P network, since the files are end-to-end encrypted and only small pieces of the files are kept in each machine. Your files are yours. You have the right for serious cloud storage. Internxt's X Cloud pricing structure and UX are similar to the one you get with providers such as Google Drive or Dropbox. Looking to become a host? You can start hosting at Internxt with the best paying rates. Users are able to pay for our services in all major currencies, and we pay hosts in our own token, INXT, which can also be traded for major currencies.

How are we better than Storj, Sia, MaidSafe etc?
Right. So we are here to outperform mass market services such as Google Drive or Dropbox, fundamentally thanks to the technology we are using, and with a similar marketing strategy and UX. We differentiate from Storj, Sia, MaidSafe etc because we aren't building services which only blockchain geeks know how to use. Their main clients are those familiar with the blockchain industry, and although we will definitely also expect to have significant amount of users in this niche, we want to make sure we put big marketing and UX efforts to reach all those individuals and businesses who aren't specially blockchain geeks nor tech experts, but who do care about the security and privacy of their files stored in the cloud. The hard job has been made; there's been years of successful research into coming up with a good enough blockchain file storage service which we can use as a starting point. We started Internxt in April 2017, and have been developing our Alpha version since (going through a successful ICO). We aren't reengineering blockchain file storage. There's been a lot of progress in this field in the last decade. We're started Internxt from the stage in which blockchain is in 2017, and we are working on making it mass market ready by improving its latest flaws and especially by focusing on providing a great User Experience and doing great at marketing. Users will be able to use any popular cryptocurrency and fiat to pay for their storage usage at X Cloud. This will get converted into INXT and then paid to hosts in our network. X Cloud Alpha will be out in January 2018, and the later stages of the service will be released throughout 2018.


INXT started trading in October 2017, and we've just hit CoinExchange and Mercatox. We'll progressively be added to further exchanges as we progress in Internxt's development and marketing. Don't hesitate to google us to check out more info about Internxt! There's plenty of information online (general info, team, roadmap on our website, reviews about Internxt on youtube and on different media outlets etc).
Thank you!

Internxt - Welcome To A New Internet.
Welcome to the future of the internet. Here at Internxt, we're creating a range of simple, beautiful decentralized internet services. We believe that there's a need for a more private, secure and independent internet, an internet where you are the true owner of your data. Our first service, X Cloud (available in summer 2018), will be a decentralized cloud file storage service which will strive to compete with services such as Dropbox or Google Drive.

X Cloud
Peer-To-Peer cloud file storage service and Internxt's first decentralized internet service. Thanks to decentralization and encryption, we are creating a platform where you can enjoy all the benefits of cloud services such as Dropbox, with the security, privacy, and independence you deserve. You'll only be sharing those files you really want to share. All the others will be available in a cloud that's only accessible by you. Unlike with other massively adopted cloud storage services, with X Cloud your files are split up into smaller pieces, end-to-end encrypted and decentralized. If a hacker was to gain access to a file of yours, he/she would need to circumvent our X Core's software security protecting your file, find the machines which are hosting the other pieces of the file and circumvent the world's most advanced encryption systems. This is fairly more complex than gaining access to your file if hosted on a centralized, non-end-to-end encrypted service like the one you might be probably using now. In the event that the hacker gained access to your laptop or wanted to access your account from another machine, a password and a 2 Factor Authenticator (2FA) would always be needed to decrypt your files. Internxt won't have access to your files at any time. These are hosted on a truly secure, private and independent P2P network.

INXT
Internxt's coin, INXT, will be used as a means of payment to hosts who participate in our X Core program. There are 629,000 INXT circulating. This supply is also INXT's max supply since no more INXT will be generated. At X Core, users can earn money by hosting small pieces of encrypted user files. Customers will be paying hosts, directly or indirectly, in INXT. In the event that the customer decides to pay for our services in fiat or any other cryptocurrency different to INXT (say, btc), those btc will be used to automatically purchase INXT at market price, and will then be sent to hosts participating of our X Core program. Thus, directly or indirectly, customers will require INXT to purchase Internxt's services. Internxt will reserve a very small % of all transactions made for our products, to be used on improving our products and services. This follows a similar mechanism to the one companies like Airbnb or Uber have. INXT can currently be traded on EtherDelta, Mercatox and CoinExchange.

“Dropbox is very hostile to privacy. Cloud companies need to pursue the zero knowledge system, where they host and process content on behalf of customers without having access to it themselves.” - Edward Snowden

“Internxt is starting to work on helping shape a new internet with the creation of distributed internet services that are attractive to the mass-market. Just like Apple did 30 years ago with the personal computer and later with the smartphone, Internxt (unlike similar decentralized internet solutions) is crafting mass-market attractive internet services.” - Clinton Senkow, CEO Influencive

“Old: do your own backups/migrations for every computer. New: one folder in sync across all devices (Dropbox and Google Drive). Newer: do everything in a browser (Chromebook). Future: decentralized web, my data is replicated around the world but only I control the keys.” - Brian Armstrong‏, CEO Coinbase
